About Us

Senior Help Guildford is owned and managed by Duncan Green.

Duncan was inspired to set up Senior Help Guildford by his Grandparents; after they began to require more assistance from him and his family and he became concerned how other elderly people in the local area could continue to live life to the full. Having close family ties himself, he deeply appreciates the importance of remaining in your home, where you feel most happy and comfortable.

Companionship

An increasingly fractured society and an ageing population have led to an epidemic of loneliness amongst the elderly. There's a proven link between loneliness and dementia. Our carers will keep isolation at bay. Sometimes having someone to talk to is the most important thing in the world.

A regular visit each day will bring focus and something to look forward to.

The ability to share thoughts and memories.

Someone who has the time to listen without time pressures.

Respite Care

Sometimes with the best will in the world, you may need a break from an intense period of caring for a family member. We can ease this burden. You can rest easy knowing that your loved one is being cared for while you take a break.

Time off for a relative who may be juggling care with their own work or family.

After having been in hospital, we can spend more time with your relative. The less lonely they are, the quicker the healing process.

If you're going on holiday, we can take over the care until you're back.

Coping with change is difficult at any age, but growing old often brings a great many challenges. Transitions in our personal lives, careers and changes in our health can result in a loss of a once active and independent lifestyle. However, it doesn’t have to be that way...
